Armen Asadorian

Hi! Whether it's headshots, commercial, fashion or fine arts, Armen Asadorian instinctually captures the truth and, when he wants to, spins it on its edge. He believes that art has no definition; it simply exists. But as such, art questions what we think we know, explores what is around us and touches the core of humanity in a place unreachable through language. His portraits exemplify this theory, liberating the inner essence of his subjects and rendering them profoundly accessible to the viewer.

Blake Gardner Photography
I am a Digital Photographer who can capture your essence in a heashot which will stand out in a crowd. I believe that your headshot needs to not only look like you physically, but mentally and emotionally as well. You need a picture that will clearly highlight the personality of the person the Casting Directors are going to meet in the audition. It is the photographer's job to make you feel comfortable enough in front of the camera that you can just be yourself. No pressure. No forced smiles. Just you.

Linda McCullough
I absolutely love what I do - In "Revealing the Soul of You" I'm allowed to reveal my own and that's where the passion lives. Through many years of experience I've learned, uncovered a way to exact the creation of an authentic connection with my subjects. There's no coincidence, no chance happening. It's something created by our collective efforts but in a very conscientious manner. Inside everyone lies the ability to fully engage in something or someone, that place inside where their energy is completely present without the need to withhold or protect itself. No distractions, no negative mind chatter or fear will prevent this natural occurrence once trust is established. In that moment the absolute essence of that being is "revealed." In that very moment I'm allowed to enter that soul with my camera lens. It's truly a form of intimacy without any ulterior motives. It's purity, it's powerful and it's foolproof. As a photographer, it's my dutiful pleasure to preserve a continous connection with my subjects and not allow anyone to mentally drift away. By the end of the shoot - they will have experienced the clear distinction of "posing" and really connecting with the person on the other side of the camera. It requires tremendous focus to sustain a "present mind" and live in the moment...but the rewards for both of us are nothing less than phenomenal.

Kenny Morrison

Kenny has been acting for over 20 years, was mainly busy as a kid actor. As a pro photographer with a background in the Film and TV Business, it gives him tools and experience that other headshot photographers lack.

"I have a knack for intuitively understanding you and your range, and can capture what works for both you and your agent.  It's important to listen to all sides, and I enjoy doing that.  Even though most actors don't necessarily love doing headshots, I make sure we have a lot of fun.  I make the process really simple and easy.  I guarantee my work, and look forward to working with you!" Kenny is equally adept at shooting actors of all ages.

Melrose Headshots
Formerly Barian Studios - Michael Barian has an ease with actors that comes from the ability to create a relaxed, drama free environment. Sessions are never rushed, and what I tell actors is "when you're visibly excited with your shots, that's when we'll stop." I tend to work quick, so the shoot does not drag on and am also a big believer in a mid-session break to reevaluate our pictures with a slide show on my Mac Book. Barian Studios (now Melrose Headshots) was featured in the Actors Life Issue of L.A Magazine in March 2001.
